of the hoods I like the raptor better,but I think cowl hoods look good on firebirds,and not a lot of people have those on firebirds

Hey! That's my black Firebird! I miss her sometimes :( . I really did like that hood, it looked awesome and I got many compliments on it. However that hood got damaged by the shipping company when I went to sell it :mad: .~Jennifer~<p>« Black 2002 WS6 » <br />¤ Flowmaster 80 <br />¤ Painted Calipers | Black / Silver Decals<br />¤ 5% Tint | All Around<br />¤ Zaino | =)Comment

I haven't seen any cowl-induction hoods for 98+ firebirds. The only things that come close are the heat extractors that you can have put on the WS6 and Raptor hoods. I'm stuck between the Ram Air H.O. and raptor hoods right now. still can't pick.2001 Arctic White Firebird<br />T-Tops, 3.42 rear gear stock<br />Mods:K&N Air Filter,Whisper Air Induction Lid, maf screen removed, raised air box, Kumho Ecsta 712 255-50-ZR16 tires, BMR stb<br />Mods not installed yet: FTRA, SLP Lsd/Differential cover<br />Near Future Mods: HPP3, GMMG 3\" Exhaust , 1LE Swaybars, Transgo Shift Kit, MSD-DIS-4 w/ Accel Coil-Packs, Turquoise Blue Neon Underbody Kit, BMR Adj.

Go with the Ho ;)
If you ever seen it in real life you'd know, the HO looks so much more muscular.
Just be warned SLP has really ****ty customer service and parts are often back ordered.AIM: escalier deverre<br />\'02 Pearl Blue Metallic RSX-S (daily driver)<br />\'98 Black Firebird<br />98 V6 turbocharged to 02 LS1 swap<br />\'02 LS1/4L60E<br />LS6 Block, LS6 Intake Manifold, Thunder Racing 215/220 .600/.523/115 Cam, Titanium Retainers, Crane Double Valve Springs, 125 shot NX Wet Kit w/ NOS brand Purge, True Dual \"H\" Pipe w/ two chambers and dumps, 17x11(rear) and 17x9.5(front) Black Powdercoated ZR1 Replicas on 315 and 275 BFGoodrich Comp T/A\'s (Street)/ET Drags/Skinnies on Weldlites(Track), 3.42/LSDComment

I agree go with the H.O., that will look sweet.1998 Arctic White Camaro<br />3.8L V6 M5<br />Flowmaster 80 Series with 3\" tips<br />Whisper Lid w/ K&N<br />Flowtech Cutout<br />Free-Ram Air Mod<br />Blue Underbody Neon Kit<br />3 MTX 6000 10\" Subs<br />Rockford 800a2 Amp<br /><a href=\"http://photos.yahoo.com/jeep327\" target=\"_blank\">My Camaro</a>Comment

I don't like the H.O. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Sorry to be the one that disagrees...
I like the raptor & ws6 about equal, I would want to see a raptor in person before I bought it.
I like mecham's the best really, but I have heard bad stuff about quality from them. www.mechamperformance.com if you would like to see it, maybe even take the plunge. I'm going to at least look into that hood before I buy aftermarket.
The H.O., to me, doesn't follow the lines of the rest of the car, looks unnatural I think.

From every car I have ever seen with the Mecham hood, the hood has a terrible fit and even with work done to it it still wont fit right.
Personally I say go fot the WS6 hood (I'm slightly biased) and second would be the H.O.
